A comforting dish of crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside roasted Yukon gold potatoes, perfect for weekend brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 lb Yukon gold potatoes (peeled or scrubbed, cut into even cubes)
  • 3 1/2 Tbsp extra-light olive oil (high-heat friendly for roasting)
  • 1 1/4 tsp sea salt (fine grain for even seasoning)
  • 1/3 tsp black pepper (freshly ground for best flavor)
  • 1 1/4 tsp paprika (sweet or smoked based on preference)
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp fresh parsley (finely chopped, optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Set the oven to 400°F and prepare a large rimmed baking sheet with a heat-safe liner.
  2. Rinse, peel if desired, and cut the potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes.
  3. Transfer the potato cubes to a large bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and toss until every piece is lightly coated.
  4. Sprinkle the salt, paprika, and black pepper over the potatoes and toss again until the seasoning is evenly distributed.
  5. Spread the potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet in a single layer and bake until tender, about 20 minutes.
  6. Remove the pan briefly to stir the potatoes, switch the oven to broil, and return them to the oven for a few minutes until deeply golden.
  7. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley if using and serve immediately while hot.

Notes

These potatoes can be customized with different spices or add-ins. Ensure uniform size for even cooking.
